THE BLUESNEWS FROM THE WORLD OF THE BLUESBLUES
FOR THE WEEKEND OF SEPTEMBER 9-10, 2017This came from the American Blues Scene site…..Vinyl Records are making a comeback, but Picture Vinyl Records are really making a comeback. These are the records with the pictures on the actual records. They were very popular in the 70’s, but mostly for R & B, Rock, and other genres of music… Now, the Picture Vinyl of blues is really coming on strong. According to J.D. Nash in an article on the American Blues Scene web site, graphics and pictures are on a lot of Blues Releases now, to include Sugar Blue, John Lee Hooker, Bo Diddley, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Robert Johnson, Joe Bonamassa, Howlin Wolf and many other Blues Stars. These are extremely popular at events like Record Store Day, which was just celebrated. J.D. reminds you that they are not cheap, and listed some of the favorite picks.
